Wednesday/Thursday Post

Hi Everybody!

Another day has flown by. I could have got more done, but the weather was nice so I went walking, and then back home I did some crafting and listened to my audio book - a perfect combination. And then it was evening....

I have another A3 mixed media journal page to share. I textured the background, using gesso with cream, brown and turquoise. The self-portrait of Albrecht Dürer was fussy cut from an old art book and glued to the page. I took a strip of vintage linen and sewed 2 pieces of brown cord onto it to look like the pattern of his shirt and added them to the page. The quote is also from A.D. The animals are there to represent the beautiful animal and bird paintings he made. I am linking to Jo's texture challenge at AJJ:

And I have another tag for 'down on the farm' at Tag Tuesday, made with a mixed media collage made many years back and printed out as tag:

My walk today took me through the old cemetery again. It is so peaceful there, and always much quieter than the road outside. And I noticed that I walk more slowly when I am there, time doesn't seem to exist there:

This old house is by the exit. I loved how the window frames and blinds from the house opposite were distorted in the reflections:

The magpie was once again at the top of the tree:

Have a great day, take care, 
and thanks a lot for coming by!
